**★ — Holly Jones, Sept. 2018**

> DO NOT purchase tile from here.  My husband & I did a complete renovation during which we purchased tile from several different places.  Our kitchen back-splash came from Akdo.  There was an issue with the quality and we wrote to them to see what could be done.  After several long periods of time between emails (they asked for photos, then asked for more photos, then stopped responding altogether), they blamed the issue on our contractor and how it was installed.  Our contractor was the best in the business and installed EVERY aspect of our apartment flawlessly, so that wasn't the issue.  They refused to do anything to help us.  Go someplace else.

**★★★★★ — Gallery Kitchens and Baths, Jan. 2018**

> I have used AKDO for many projects and find their selection to be exceptional and highly recommend them to every client.

**★★★★★ — Classic Tile & Flooring, Sept. 2016**

> AKDO offers hundreds of stunning tile and natural stone products. Their company's core value of quality is expressed in many ways, including the finest stones and mosaics in the world. They produce gorgeous innovative products that we are extremely proud to be displaying and selling in our showroom.

**★★★★★ — Westside Tile & Stone, Inc., Aug. 2015**

> AKDO has been importing the very best natural stone slabs, tiles and handcrafted mosaics for nearly two decades.
> AKDO offers an incredible collection of natural stone tiles, slabs, mosaics and specialty stone in an unrivaled variety of colors and patterns. Their products are ideally suited for aesthetic-focused interiors, including residential, hospitality, and commercial environs. We could not be more proud to be a dealer of their amazing products!

**★★★★★ — Estevan Serrano, March 2015**

> The AKDO team is incredible to work with. Organized and super polite, they stand behind their extensive product line and will go to great lengths to ensure genuine client satisfaction. In the 2+ years I have worked closely with them, I cannot remember any real mistakes or unexpected delays. Whitney has been a valuable asset to our company and gives stellar presentations. Their communication is top notch and when specifying material, I know that I will always be able to count on AKDO.

**★★★★★ — MILLER + MILLER Architectural Photography, June 2014**

> AKDO has brilliant stone, tiles, designs, borders and mosaics.  We have the privilege of being able to peer inside some of the most luxurious custom homes in Illinois and many of our clients have AKDO materials and designs in their home. After meeting Kate Donofree, the talented art director and designer of the particular stone pattern we were interested in, it is very apparent that she knows her stone, even down to what part of the quarry it was cut from. That's a designer with passion.
